@Sleeeeeepy 😂😂 you do cheer me up need a holiday not a shag 🙈

@Trying4mylastmiracle that's good news 😊

Good luck with cycle 8 @Loladoodle I've just looked and I'm on proper cycle 6 after about 6 weeks of naffing about at the start

If it hadn't been DH's birthday I just wouldn't have bothered again tbh, I need a holiday not a shag. I didn't tell him it was peak but I've noticed he is much more interested at that point in the cycle, I think it must be the pheromones (it's not the sexy vibes or special effort, he's lucky if I brush my hair)

@Sleeeeeepy that made me laugh his looking very well pleased with himself fingers crossed for you.@Loladoodle i know the feeling 🙄 but like you said off we go gain I’ve decided to tell my head u not trying we just not preventing either and today we decided we not selling or donating DD baby’s stuff so he spent his day off emptying the shed all DD’s stuff I kept we cleaned it packed away it in the loft his words were just incase darling !

@Sleeeeeepy good luck for 2ww! It drives me mad every month... I never learn.

@Sleeeeeepy thanks 🙏 the first few days is always grim but will focus on the goal again after that 😅 here we go again!!! Cycle 8 🤪

I'm sorry AF arrived for you ladies. It's so blooming disappointing. Recommend tea and chocolate.

I'm just entering the TWW. I only did CB opk this cycle and we only managed to dtd twice, it was on consecutive nights so not very well planned! It has been so long since we've done that, it was DH's birthday and he's looking very pleased with himself 😂

Painful period has arrived here too, not unexpectedly. I just know soon as the sore boobs kick in around 8dpo! Meh!

@Highlandmama thank you I think I knew last night that something was happening I started cramping

Sorry @Trying4mylastmiracle this happened to me last month and I was so disappointed. Roll on next cycle x

Good luck to everyone I’m out my period arrived this morning earlier than expected

@Highlandmama we due AF on the same day but me it will be my first proper one since had one last month light lasted 3 days I tested in between just to make it was a period nothing else it was BFN so this was I went through hell think it’s my body getting ready for a normal heavy one I even have acne very very hard week emotionally killed me

@claireb7rg I’m sorry to hear this but be hopeful it’s gonna happen at some point.@selina37 oh god I don’t want your period to show up I want two lines so I’m sitting at the edge of my seat right now for you 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽.As I’m sitting here I can feel niggles like cramps think the witch is creeping on me I might be early .

@selina37 not over yet! Hopefully we see a few more BFPs on here soon. AF due Thursday for me so going back and forth between feeling hopeful as we have been BDing lots this month and feeling like it might never happen again! Ah! The hormones. Happily a friend who is about the same age as me had just had her 12 week scan and all is well! It can happen 😊

@claireb7rg sorry to hear this. Hope you are doing ok tonight. I tend to feel a bit hopeful again about 3 days into AF but for now, be kind to yourself. I console myself with the fact that it took 2 years to conceive DS and he was well worth the wait in the end.hugs

Fully expected period today, but still none. It seems my body is like clockwork until it wants to wind me the hell up 🙄
I just know it'll here in the morning. Meanwhile I can't help but hope. Oh the disappointment to come...

@CurlyNo2 thank you well I’m gonna bother testing because it’s a 3 days wait I normal spot a day before so expecting movement by Tuesday or day after but before Thursday

Don't worry about no symptoms, I have absolutely zero symptoms when I had my son. I took a test 2 days before AF was due 'just to see if anything happened' and it was positive. The line was almost as dark as the control line. So I wouldn't go by symptoms x

Thank you! I'm due on in 6 days but I normally ovulate very early around CD11. I didn't track this month as I was becoming frustrated so we relaxed more this month. So I'm not sure of and when. I'm trying to not get carried away but this month feels so different.

The tell tale sign will be over the next few days as I always spot from a week before.

@CurlyNo2 when are you due you got me all right cited now looking at those symptoms fingers crossed for you I’m due on Thursday I’m sitting here like here we go again I have zero symptoms 🙄

I feel like I'm going bonkers with the amount of symptoms I have going on at the minute.

Never had anything with my son.

I have cramps, backache, extreme dizziness, hot flushes, insomnia, I'm so cranky and i can't stop eating!

This is so not like me! 🤞🤞

Thank you @Trying4mylastmiracle @SnowWhite1985 @selina37. I think I just needed a day to wallow and OH did the best job of avoiding the subject and just trying to cheer me up so today is a better day. I think sometimes things just get too much.

Hope everyone else is doing well!!

@LT103 I know what you feeling it’s a painful feeling but like your other half said stop being negative he don’t mean it badly think he doesn’t want you being upset and that having an effect on you as it will affect you and what you trying to achieve but I’m sure he knows and he feels the same way you do my other half is the same he says I don’t mind whatever happens his happy raising my daughter as his but then when we having a conversation of having one together I can see it in his eyes the joy it will him it will be his first however I can’t help but worry about my body not doing what it’s supposed to do due to age so just keep your head up keep walking you be okay I’ve had a week from hell cried a lot when I got better emotionally thrush decided to attack me so just decided to eat crisps and not bother this week like that’s it I give up lol 😂

@Happyhappy37 thank you lovely! You too! 🤞

I really should have proof read that post! 😂🤦‍♀️
